计算机的发展（Computer development） The first electronic computer (ENIAC) eni, which was run in 1946 Run in 1946 the first electronic computer (ENIAC) - the U.S. military has spent $480000 on the ENIAC project, it was but a small fortune, but for the second world war, who can give so much money? In fact, the ENIAC was jointly issued by the U.S. armys armory and the university of Pennsylvanias Mohr college, not the only university in Pennsylvania. Technically, ENIAC doesnt have a very clear CPU concept. Because it USES the electron tube as the basic electronic component. With 18,800 tubes, each tube is about the size of a 25-watt bulb. The whole computer is 8 feet tall, 3 feet wide and 100 feet long. It weighs 30 tons and consumes 140 kilowatts. 5000 times per second can add operation (and one of the fastest speed in the only 5 per second) an addition operation, still can undertake square and cube arithmetic to calculate the value of the sine and cosine trigonometric function and some other more complex calculations. At that time it was the highest level of human intelligence. There are thousands of electronic tubes, diodes, resistors and other components inside, and there are as many as 500,000 welding points in the circuit. On the surface of the machine, there are electricity meters, wires and lights. It is a crying joke that it consumes more than 174 kilowatt-hours of electricity and is said to be dimmed when used. And its tubes burn at an average of about 15 minutes every 15 minutes, and scientists have to change all over the place. However, the speed of the eni calculation is about 200,000 times the manual calculation and 1000 times the number of relay computers. The U.S. military has also gotten a taste for it, because it calculates the projectiles trajectory for only three seconds, before it takes 200 people to work on it for two months. In addition to routine ballistic calculations, it has also been involved in many scientific research fields and played an important
